Supreme Court Justice JNichols, at Cobleskill, rendered the de- cision. " The amount’ claimed is about £270,000. Erlanger brought suit two years ago, alleging he had put most of the money into the partnership, and that he had an oral agreement by which he was en- titled to 5 per_cent interest on his ex- capital. Hc contended the agree- ment was In force when the partner- ship of thirty years' standing was broken up in 1918, Erlanger testified at the trial that prolenged vacations Klaw took in Eu- rope, which began in 1903 when_ the verbal agreement was alleged to have been made, caused the split.

By the Assoclated Press. MITCHEL FIELD, N. Y., July 14.— Lieut. Russell L. Maughan, whose at- tempt last Monday to make a day- light flight from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast was frustrated when he was forced down in Missouri, arrived last night from Bolling Field, Wash- ington, whence he had flown from Dayton, Ohio. He announces he would make a second attempt. probably Monday, to span the continent be- tween dawn and sunset of a single day. The second attempt, Lieut. Maughan declared, had been approved in an order issued by Maj. Gen. Pat- rick, chief of the air service. The flight from Dayton was made in"the Curtiss pursuit plane in which Maughan attempted the trans-conti- nental trip. He said it had been re- paired at Dayton, and that it was in excellent shape for a long jaunt, Lieut. Maughan explained that an announcement made by the air ser- vice several days ago that no further attempt at a daylight coast-to-coast flight would be made until nex sum- mer, had been occasioned by an er- roneous report to Washington that motor trouble had caused the forced landing ut St. Joseph, Mo., last Mon- ay. When officials were informed that a clot in the gasoline feed pipe had made the landing necessary, and that the plane was in good condition, they approved the second attempt, Mau- ghan declared.

Golden Text—Lord, Thou knowest all things; ‘Thou knowest that T love thee—John 21:17. 2:1-11 Peter is the best known and the least understood of all the apostles. There has been more disagreement among scholars and students of the Bible over Peter than any other New Testament character. He Is the most popular personality, aside from the Lord Jesus, that is presented to the world in the history of Christianity’s jearly days. Peter's life is an open book. There is nothing secret, sinister or subtle in his career. It has been recorded frankly, so that all have found in the study of his life an en- couragement, since most people find that Peter had some points of failure similar to their own personal experi- ence. The problems of the distinguished apostle character are found in_ the web of inconsistencies that men have found difficulty, in understanding. Take, for example, the evidence that points to his courage and also to cowardice. No one of the twelve xhibited more courage than Peter. He plunged into the water with a sublime faith that appeared to con- quer nature, as long as he kept his eyes upon the Lord Jesus, but when he turned and looked upon the sur- face of the lake Peter became fright- ened “when he saw the wind boister- |ous” and, “beginning to sink, he cried, ving, Lord, save me.” He exhibited a similar changeableness when the Master was taken a prisoner. He had professed his courageous deter- mination to go with Jesus to prison or to_death. His impulsive defense of the Christ, when he drew the sword and cut off his right ear revealed one side of his nature. His denial of the Lord three times at His trial was an exhibition of the opposite character. {His inconsistency was due to the strength of his personality, Which fitted him for leadership among the apostles. A man's strongest point is apt to be his weakest. The Master may_have referred that fact when he first met Peter, when Andrew ht him to Jesus. D eres ure mgnifcant in the east. When Simon was introduced to the Master by his brother Christ assured m that although his name was Simon and his career had been char- acterized by fickleness and incon- sistency he was to be called Cephas, meaning a stone. Later, when Peter made the first confession of personal faith in answer to the greatest per- sonal question men are compelled to answer concerning Christ's character, the Master assured him that he was blessed and that he was a rock that was to become a foundation stone in the building of His church. Jesus recognized the possibilities iin Peter, when He first met the rug- ged and conservative fisherman of Galilee. When the Lord had evidence that the business partner of Zebedee had grasped the reality of His divine nature and had been born again the Master understood that a struggle had started in the development of the character of Peter that would result in the apostle becoming & great hero of the new faith, which he had con- fessed. The transformation of Simon into the rock took time. It was a struggle that was born of love. The brave nature, that quickly responded to the call of the Christ for him to leave his business and be taught by the Master to take “men alive” was molded by the life, lessons and labor of Jesus. It took time, but the prophecy of Christ was fulfilled in Peter's apostolic work, that justified the Lord’s calling Simon to leave his nets, family, friends and business op- portunities to jolin the soclety of Jesus as a disciple. The impression that the ministry of Jesus made upon Peter can be seen in Mark's gospel. The vivid picture of Christ presented in the second gospel is recognized by scholars to be due to the influence of the Apostle Peter. It shows his “supreme insight and hos- pitality for the character of Jesus.” He commenced as & disciple to show the qualities that marked his apos- tolic efforts. He was alwaye ready. Straightway, forthwith and imme- diately characterized Peter's attitude toward the Master. He opened his home for the headquarters of Christ Jesus_during His campaigns in Gal- ilee. His home was a center of heal- ing ministry. His grateful mother-in- law was a living witness to Christ's power as a healer. His intimacy with Jesus helped Peter to cast aside the infirmities of his old life and it aided him to become like Jesus in helpful ministry during the period he guided and directed the church of Christ in its beginnings in Jerusalem. Peter's business experience helped him when he became the dominating force of the mother church. He had a complete understanding of Christ's program and evidently tried to build along the lines lald down by the Master Bulilder. The early history of the Christlan faith gathers after Pentecost around Peter. It was he who recognized the significance of that day, which ranks as the second greatest In the history of human re- demption. He courageously defended the followers of the risen Christ from the charge of drunkenness. His initiative genius quickly grasped the meaning of every new problem that was presemted. His administra- tion was free from the influence of former prejudices and its ever-pres- ent environment. A man of his in- tensity of spirit was apt to be narrow and conservative in the clashes which Y. M. C. A. LINCOLN PARK OPEN-AIR SERVICE. SUNDAY—4 P.M. Rev. Ellis C, Primm, SPEAKER. Everybody Invited.

All denominations co-workers " Seeking, Saving, Serving We minister to body and soul | came between the two different Jew- ish divisions that filled the first church with discord and disputes over the teachings of Jesus and its social application within the ranks of the church. He recognized the twofold task of the new organization that Jesus had established. He called for it.to purify itself within and to carry the light of the wdrld to those with- out. He stood for the purification of the church, when he called Ananias and Sapphira to account for their falsehoods. His actlons received the | confirmation of the higher courts of heaven in their speedy condemnation for lying to the Holy Ghost. Peter was the first to open the doors of the church to the Gentiles, although he later had conflicts with Paul about the subject of Gentile Christianity. Against this rock the fury of the first’ persecution spent itself. Peter was ready to endure all forms of sufferings and ill treatment for the Lord, who had recalled him to His service and restored Peter to the apostleship when He applied his three- fold love test question to the one who had denied him three times. He did not flinch. His influence gave added power to all to stand up for Christ and His Church. When men were willing like Peter was to endure all forms of persecution and imprison- ment, it meant that Christianity could not be crushed. Herod lald hold of Peter, but “prayer was made earnestly of the church unto God for him.” The swift response of the Lord in sending angels to llberate the imprisoned Peter indicated to all the high regard with which the apostle was held in glory. He faced prison and perse- cutons frequently. He refused to al- low them to Intérfere with his duty. It declined to heed the many requests and suggestions that he quit preach- ing the “Gospel” He refused to be disloyal to Christ and His cause. He kept on preaching with increased suc- cess and power. The “constructing engineer.” who had been left in charge of the work of building the Church of the Living God, was developed personally by the storms, struggles and sufferin, through which he was forced to pa He met every emergency and crisis in a manner that proved his great- ness. He co-operated with others. He looked over his differences with Paul until they recognized him as the “apostle of hope.” His sufferings were a source of joy to him. In them he found the folly of some of his sug- gostions that he had made to the Lord, who had molded him into a bold and courageous apostle. He met every issue with fearless courage. The "timidity of his early Christian experience all disappeared, until his life and letters were marked by a spirit of courage. He speaks in his epistles of this transformation incidentally by say- ing, “Blessed be God, who has be- gotten us into a lively hope"—a hope that pervaded his life and labors so that he toiled not by fits and starts but constantly and courageously. The one who objected to Jesus dying speaks of being “Redeemed by the blood of Christ, as the Lamb without blemish and without spot.” When Peter expresses the hope that “The God of all grace after ye have suf- fered awhile make you perfe: tablish, strengthen, settle you,” he reveals the source of his own trans- formation in character and increased personal power. He realized that the sufferings through which he passed had filled him with joy so that when he faced the martyr's death he looked forward with a hope born of many trials to meeting the Master face to face, whose influence, instruc- tion and insporation had, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, changed him from belng the changeable Simon into the consistent and coura- geous Peter, who stood like a rock for Christ and His Church during the days of his apostleship.

R. Scar- borough, general director of the $75, 000,000 campaign, and Dr. O. E. Bryan, budget director, in Nashville, begin- ning June 21. Literature was outlined and other working methods agreed upon Where- by it is hoped to effect the adoption by the local churches of a regular budget for both local and general work, and a system of weekly offer- ings for the support of the budget. The local churches will be approached chiefly through the district assocla- tions to which they belong. While one object of this special effort is to reinforce the Baptist $75,- 000,000 campaign and make it possi- ble' to attain the cash goal of $75,- 000,000 by the end of the five-year period, December, 1924, it has for a further ideal the placing of the finances of the denomination upon a sounder basis and the development of all Southern Baptists in the principles and practice of Christian stewardship.
